Summary: One of the BEST Sci-fi Films of all Time!
Review: The original "Star Wars" is, to this day, one of the greatest sci-fi films of all time! When it was released in 1977, no other sci-fi film came close in comparison to the quality and advancement in special effects technology that this film presented. "Star Wars" set the standard by which all other sci-fi films are judged to this day.As for the plot, many critics like to say that people continue to watch and enjoy "Star Wars" to recapture lost youth. They're wrong! Because we remain young at heart and idealistic about the future, we love films such as "Star Wars" that promote the hope of a better tomorrow when so many other things in real life have failed. Films such as "Star Wars" ignite the imagination and encourage mankind to reach for the stars! Maybe it's the critics who need to recapture their youth and idealism, both of which appear to be dead and forgotten. My thanks to George Lucas, Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Alec Guiness and the many other cast and crew that brought this remarkable film to life for countless generations to enjoy!

Review: All 3 movies were GREAT! These movies are classics, and are for any one who likes fantasy things. I saw that this one is better than the 'original' ones, becuase they added a whole lot more in the special edition one. So the only thing left to say is: This is an amazing story fit into 3 great tapes.

Summary: The Classic STAR WARS Trilogy
Review: George Lucas' first installment in the hugely popular STAR WARS franchise is generally regarded as the greatest movie ever made. Why? Well, what's not to like? From the opening shot of the Blockade Runner accompanied by that great theme tune by John Williams, you know you're in the unique world of the STAR WARS universe. Before George's action-packed THE PHANTOM MENACE and ATTACK OF THE CLONES, A NEW HOPE was known only as STAR WARS. Audiences had never seen anything so original and amazing. Now, the series has entered into the fanboy culture all over the world. In comparison, Episode 4 seems somewhat tame compared to ATOC, but it's still an astounding adventure filled with great characters and amazing music.
From Hero Luke Skywalker's symbolic journey from his home Tatooine to the moment of victory at the finale, we are greeted with a myriad of fantastic characters, especially Han Solo, played by a pre-Indy Harrison Ford and his mate Chewbacca. And the ultimate incarnation of evil, Darth Vader. And that, more than anything, is what made TPM so hollow. While the action was good, the lack of good characters is disappointing. But AOTC has regained much of the sense of adventure that this film started off.
Lucas' grand vision illuminates the entire film, with inventive creatures and events. Several scenes that are my favorites are Obi Wan's conversation to Luke about the Clone Wars and Vader, Solo's disposal of Greedo, Obi Wan and Vader's last battle and the battle of Yavin. One of my all-time favorite films, STAR WARS is THE great adventure. Directed by Irvin Kershner, THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK moved away from the high-sprited antics of the first film and took a step towards the dark side. The Empire is preparing to seek revenge on the Rebel Alliance, C3P0 gets blasted to bits and Luke Skywalker finds out that Darth Vader is his dad! Even John William's score is much darker in tone than his previous efforts. But the film is an excellent adventure that many fans consider to be superior to the original. Mark Hamill returns as Luke, Carrie Fisher as Princess Leia and Harrison Ford as the sardonic Han Solo. And we are introduced to the wise Yoda, who trains Luke about the ways of a Jedi. The action ante is upped considerably, with exciting chases through asteroid feilds, battles between the imperial fighters and the AT-ATs and Luke's rescue mission. And the Bespin Duel, where the confrontational battle between Vader and Luke ends with one of the most shocking revelations in movie history (Even if it's somewhat un-surprising for future fans who watch all the completed films in sequence). RETURN OF THE JEDI isn't as good as the previous two, but still has it's moments of exciting action. Episode VI starts off where EMPIRE left off, with Luke and Leia rescuing Han Solo from the crime lord Jabba the Hutt. While the film is less exciting than it's counterparts, it does have some good action, including the rescue on the desert skiff, the speeder chase through the forest of Endor, the dark final battle between Darth Vader, Emperor Palpatine and Luke and the destruction of the second Death Star. The lightsaber fights are some of the best in the Star Wars cannon and Princess Leia is hotter than ever! John William's score is even more exciting than ESB. The one thing that's somewhat grinding is the inclusion of the ewoks, but the rest is good-natured fun.
If I were to place the Star Wars films in order from best to not-as-good, they would go THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK, A NEW HOPE, ATTACK OF THE CLONES, RETURN OF THE JEDI and THE PHANTOM MENACE. I hope George decides to do parts VII, VIII and IX, because they can bring back all the great characters that make these films so enjoyable.
This presentation is very impressive, with added scenes and improved SFX. We see more of Jabba the Hutt, there are some great additions including the amazing Bespin City and the added scenes at the end of JEDI. A classic trilogy, and a must-buy when it gets on DVD. I'm waiting...

Summary: Good Stuff
Review: I personaly love the Star Wars films. The never ones are a bit lame, but i must admit, i am obsessed. A Star Wars freak. I kinda grew up on them, seeing them over and over when i was little. No one can replace Harrison Ford as Han Solo, or Luke Skywalker, and Yoda is much quarkier in the older movies. Its basic Sci-Fi action that is irreplaceable. But George Lucas needs to make his newer ones more interesting!

Summary: Good, but the added and visual don't add anything...
Review: These movies are classic, however the digital enhancing and added scenes don't add much, I only own the vhs to have a remastered copy of the 3 films...What is really amazing is that George Lucas didn't censor his classic films as opposed to his buddy Stephen Speilberg, instead he just added more enhanced graphics and took scenes he left out and added them in so we can see things we've never seen before, I think the only reason I went to go see these movies was because they were in the movie theatre and not on my tiny television, the updated graphics didn't stun me as much as the sound and picture of the big screen, overall, if you like the movies a lot and can't wait for the DVDs which are never gonna be released!!! :-( buy this vhs set.

Summary: DVD?
Review: This is a great collection of the Star Wars Trilogy. The original, The Empire Strikes Back, and Return of The Jedi. The second two movies feature my favorite characters Yoda and Jabba the Hut. The storylines to these movies were thin but you didn't care because of the special effects but on VHS these movies seem really poor. I say add it to DVD and then I will buy it.

Summary: A New Hope ... For Science Fiction
Review: Stop and think for a minute - 1977 - What were you doing in 1977? Petting your pet rock? Getting down with Tony Orlando & Dawn? Star Wars hit the world like a bolt from the blue. We were not prepared. Little did we know that 25 years later, the saga still continues. What an original idea. To start a saga with episode IV. At the time, we didn't even question why - we were too blown away by the film. Even in the opening scene, we seem to be walking into the middle of a movie. Slowly, questions arose. Through the decades, questions were answered, and more questions asked. But one answer stands certain - The continuing Star Wars story is the saga of our lives. May we all continue to rebel against the evil empire. And may the force be with you...

Summary: A long time ago, in a trilogy far away....
Review: STAR WARS EPISODE IV, V, & VI: TIMELESS CLASSICS It was history in the making in the world of Hollywood, before George Lucas went over to the Dark Side with the prequels. In 1977, Lucas created Star Wars Episode IV-A New Hope, little expecting that this movie would go to box-office light-speed and gain him a name in cinema history. This was the saga of an idealistic farmboy named Luke Skywalker, son of a fallen Jedi Knight, and his quest to seek out not only a princess but his own destiny. Luke, Obi-Wan Kenobi, two droids, the squat but very versatile R2-D2 and the cowardly Tin Man, C-3PO, Corellian space pirate Han Solo and the Wookiee Chewbacca immortalized themselves in the psyches of Boomer and Generation-X'ers. The Mos Eisley Cantina, with its plethora of exotic creatures, the desert world of Tatooine, the moon-sized planet-destroying Death Star of Grand Moff Tarkin, the rickety saucer-shaped Millennium Falcon, and dogfights between X-Wings and Tie Fighters set the standard for science fiction films thereafter. Viewers would also meet Darth Vader, Dark Lord of the Sith, who would symbolize the evil that was the Galactic Empire. Menacing in his skull-like helmet, armour, black cloak, and his ominous breathing apparatus, Darth Vader became my favorite Star Wars character. Indeed, he gained prominence in The Empire Strikes Back, the best of the trilogy, featuring Snow Walkers, asteroid fields, some hot-shot flying by Han Solo, cities in the clouds, and wizened Jedi Masters from whom we learned that "luminous beings are we, not this crude matter." Yoda demonstrated the triumph of the human will when he levitated Luke's X-wing from the swamps of Dagobah. Luke's harrowing adventure in the cave was a clue to what he would learn later. Empire featured the proper debut of the bounty hunter Boba Fett, whose armoured array of weaponry, cunning, and guile served the Empire well. A pity the other bounty hunters were seen all too briefly. The trilogy wrapped up in Return Of The Jedi, where Luke, Lando, Princess Leia went to rescue Han Solo from Jabba the Hutt, then prepare in time for the climactic battle against the Empire and Death Star Mark II, and a shot at getting Emperor Palpatine himself. Luke learned the truth about his father and readied himself for the confrontation with Vader and the Emperor. The monsters at Jabba's palace exceeded the cantina scenes, with Jabba representing the ultimate in Phil Tippett's creations. However, I do prefer the original Max Rebo music number. And as for the Ewoks, yes, "short help is better than none," and at least the revamped edition did away with their cutesy dance number. And the space battle was the perfect special effects triumph with just the right excitement, not the numbing digital blast of sound and noise that permeates today's movies. All three of these movies played a formative role in my childhood. These three videos are the revamped editions, and most of the new scenes add to the original cuts of the movies without ruining them. It is the triumphant dialogue and appealing characters that make the original trilogy classics in their time. Who can forget such memorable lines as "I felt as if millions of voices had cried out, and were suddenly silenced," "Don't you call me a mindless philospher, you overweight blob of grease!", "Garbage! What a really wonderful idea! What an incredible smell you've discovered!", "Look at the size of that thing!" and "He's got to follow his own path, no one can choose it for him." So remember, a Jedi's strength flows in embracing the Good Trilogy, A New Hope, Empire, and Jedi. But beware the Dark Trilogy--Menace, Clones, and the one yet to come. Once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny. So trust your feelings, and may the Force be with you.
